I feel like today was really long for some reason. Not in a bad way, just that this morning seems like a reaaaaaally long time ago, lol. Probably just because I did a lot of different stuff

I just checked out the comments being left for Ellen, and they are utterly embarrassing. The concept itself is interesting; I think it's great that she wants to expand her music tastes and is using her large fanbase for suggestions. But it's ridiculous that people are spamming her like mad, or arguing withing comments whether this Korean boy band is better than this Korean boy band because so-and-so has a buttface- yes, I'm not even kidding, one person said that. And some people are acting like Ellen's saying, "I have the power to bring your favorite bands from overseas to my show with the swing of my magic wand!" She just wants music.
As for your second point... I must admit that I prefer the musical style and ability of Korean boy bands as opposed to the Japanese ones, but I'm far too absorbed in Japan to change my focus even a tiny bit. Then again, I'm not a very hardcore fan of either side to begin with so many I don't count, hahaha. But I think people get burned out in fandoms when they're a bit, well... obsessive (I wish I could find a less negative word) about them. Girls that devote 24/7 to pursuing all things sparkly and Johnny's will eventually get tired of all the feather boas and what have you. So they move on to something completely different and exciting. It's like starting a new relationship, hahaha.
I miss you and my apartment smells like toots so both of these things are making me sad at the moment. Come to Japan plzkthx.
So many psycho fangirls. I'm like, okay, most likely, she just plays a song or music video or something on the show. And seeing these crazy fangirls duking it out will probably make her and her staff NOT want to introduce those groups on the show. Lulz at someone calling a kpop singer a buttface. Yay, maturity!
I like my failboat idols, haha. But yeah, there just seems to be this JE ---> kpop trend that I kind of understand and also kind of don't. I guess I'm not as fickle in my fandoms as some other people? Your fandom is different, haha.
Doing what I can! I miss you too. If there is any justice in this world, I'll make it to Japan before you leave. Also, maybe buy a can of air freshener.
